I'd love to know the deal they're getting.... I doubt we're talking about a significant uplift in profit share let's be honest. I won't be buying it either to be honest. A poor move to be honest.

I can't see many paying 75 euro for a brand that is not known. It's no cheaper than an O'Neills jersey. So id agree a very poor move. I know the players would prefer to be kitted out in O'Neills gear. It's a small thing and so easy to get right. Not surprised they got it wrong.

As far as I am aware it never been about a deal, it's about supply to the county setup. O'Neil's was always a problem getting gear every year. O'Neils wouldn't give hoot about Leitrim as the general public sales numbers aren't there, so all category of the county setup was always waiting until last minute for gear. That's why they switched to McKeever I believe, but I believe the last year or 2 McKeever supply also became an issue.

Agree with this.

Why not support the new suppler and get on with it

I am no expert on jerseys and I haven't seen it yet ,except in photos.However the feedback I am getting is very positive, unlike the criticism om this forum.

I have Gaelic armour gear and I'd question the quality. As would any parent when after 7 washes it has to be replaced.

Not really, but I prefer on the upside of positivity than yourself who is continuously whinging about everything, from managers to jerseys.

I find that strange reasoning.... we did change before from O'Neills to Connolly (in the 90's... Connolly are long gone BTW) but went back to O'Neills so to then change to McKeever & so forth would be strange unless there was a financial aspect to it. I get that there's not the same jersey demand but to change for that reason and that alone would be baffling (i.e. A delay in obtaining kit).

That is not true and things are not bad.

What in the name of God are you bringing to the debate except to continuously whinge.

You lead a campaign against Andy Moran, when almost everyone else considered he was making progress.

You lauded and promoted Mickey Graham and we know how that ended.

Now you are whinging/cringing about the Leitrim jersey.You have form as ?????
